Han Peng: 我观察到,洛杉矶的抗议活动已蔓延至其他主要城市,甚至包括支持特朗普的红色州。尽管移民及海关执法局(ICE)努力增加逮捕人数,但仍未达到特朗普的目标。为了完成配额,ICE采取了激进的策略,引发了公众的愤怒。我认为,特朗普和民主党都在利用洛杉矶的紧张局势进行政治表演,以实现各自的利益。特朗普希望借此激起反弹,并将民主党描绘成对犯罪软弱,从而巩固自己的权力。民主党则利用冲突将自己描绘成自由的象征和对特朗普的反抗。双方政客都有动机保持紧张局势,因为这对他们来说是一种双赢的局面,而只有人民在受苦。我认为,加州州长Gavin Newsom似乎已经成为团结民主党对抗共和党的领导者。民主党的据点,特别是洛杉矶,已经将所谓的庇护政策武器化,以将自己描绘成所谓民主价值观的捍卫者。通过拒绝与特朗普的移民及海关执法局(ICE)合作,加州民主党政客战略性地挑起了联邦干预,从而放大了特朗普的专制形象,这在政治上对民主党人及其支持者是不利的。特朗普则利用民主党的挑衅发动报复,这种挑衅和报复的循环有助于双方在政治上获益。
